Hi,
what about using normal mail for communication
between the 'hardcore' BGRR fans/developers...?
However, the problem of distribution of software
(e.g. for betatesting) would still not be
solved...
I think we really need a totally unrelated,
'anonymous' ftp server for uploads & downloads...
A basic question for me still is: what are we all
aiming at? If we have to move more and more
into secrecy what will we ever do with the
outcome of our efforts (i.e. the wrapper)?
If we really expect to get in BIG troubles
when distributing such a thing, then probably
there is really little sense in developing
it further?
I found the idea of delivering not a 'WRAPPER'
(3dfx ALERT!!!) but simple 'game-drivers'
quite promising and probably our only chance.
Now, for two weeks we have the first such driver,
and it is obviously not possible to distribute
it... What's the use of all this? (in a few weeks,
Croc will not interest anyone anymore)...
The further we go, the less we will be able
to distribute the whole thing....
Oh yes, big 3dfx, we give up ;-)
